Chapter 25: Chapter 25 The Move

Lucian had gotten all of Luna's transfer documents ready and had sent

it over the school at full moon pack. Luna was due to start in two

weeks. She's had to say her goodbye to Michael and her stepmom and

let them know where she would move too. She had moved out to live

with her uncle as she not only felt betrayed by their lies but she knew

that she needed his help with all the changes that she was undergoing.

She was not too happy about the move as she really didn't want to be

away from Soccorah and Luca but she had no choice. Her changes were

becoming riskier and she could not risk revealing this secret. She had to

do the right or mature thing. Her uncle had explained that she needed

to be with her kind as he suspected that she would soon begin to

manifest abilities.

Luna had most of her stuff packed and had started to move her stuff

over to the new house provided by her pack. Her uncle said that they

were having talks to join the two packs to deal with some problems

faced by the two packs. The added warriors were needed in case they

had to go to war. Luna was still new to all this and had been more

focused on her grades and her friends then there were the

transformations so she had her plate full. She was practically a

newborn.

She was not at all excited as she was not particularly good at making

friends and Attica had been so easy with Soccorah and the emergence

of her skills was just icing on the cake. Now she would be at a werewolf

school in a pack and everyone would be talented. How would this

work? Would she even stand out? Or even if she managed to stand out

would it be for the better or would it make things worse? Luna sat on

the floor in her room in deep thought contemplating her fate at this

new school when her phone rang snapping her out of her thoughts.

It was Soccorah. She had asked her to call so she could speak with her

about her moving away as they had not seen each other since the

decision was made and Lucian had taken care of things faster than

she'd thought possible. I guess since he knew the Alpha of the full

moon pack and since he worked at the college the process was flawless

and quick.

Luna sighed and asked Soccorah to come over so she could break the

news to her as she didn't want to tell her something so delicate over

the phone. “I'll be right over.” Soccorah agreed as she'd always wanted

to visit Luna“s house. Soccorah grabbed her jacket and raced

downstairs that she bumped into Lua. She told him that she was going

to Luna's house and was off.

Within ten minutes she arrived at Luna’s house and knocked on the

door. She looked at the middleclass house and smiled. The house

looked so warm and cozy. She thought that coach did a great job with

the upkeep. Luna opened the door as Lucian had stepped out to run

some errands. She hugged her friend and thanked her for coming. she

gave her a quick tour of her house and then brought her to her room

to talk.

When Soccorah saw that most of Luna's things were in bags she asked

“Why are you all packed? Are you going on vacation during the school

year? Why are you packing?“Luna looked at her and came right out

with it. “I'm moving away with Uncle Lucian. Not very far, I mean we

could still talk and I can still help you with your Chemistry but I have to

go to a school or be in a place that is more accommodating where I can

be free to be myself. My uncle is concerned that since I am rather new

to my transformations and still learning that I can be easily controlled

by the moon and he doesn’t want me to risk letting our secret out

there.” “Luna didn't you tell him that we could help you?” she asked. “I

came really close to being discovered last week during the full moon

and if it hadn't been for uncle Lucian, who knows what could have

happened. Better safe than sorry. I just wanted to tell you in person. I'm

really going to miss you and Luca.”

“Where will you go? Will I ever see you again?” Soccorah asked with

tears in her eyes. “Hey, no tears. No sad goodbyes. I don't like those. I

don’t Know and all I know is that it will be a werewolf school in a new

pack. It's all some big secret. I'm just coming into this new world and I

really just want to follow the rules and not single handedly destroy

everything that existed before my existence. I will call you and we can

do facetime.” Luna replied hugging her friend.

The two spent the rest of the afternoon talking wile packing Soccorah

left.

Luna then left with her uncle to say goodbye to her adopted parents.

The last time she saw them was a bit uneasy considering all that had

transpired but Luna felt that she owed them something having raised

her all those years. She walked up to the house and got the chills as she

entered the house. Michael had his bags packed and appeared to be

leaving. Luna asked what was going on and he hugged Luna and said

“I'm glad that you got out of here and have someone to turn too, a

chance at a real family. Don't feel bad and if you can stay away from

this woman. She is NOT your mother. She has no feelings. I don't even

think that she’s human.” He walked outside and shook Lucian's hands

and left with all his belongings.

“What the hell was that about mom?” Luna asked. “He's just pissed and

thought that he could walk all over me. Since you left everything just

went to hell.” It had only been a year since she'd been living with her

uncle and she didn’t understand how all this happened. Michael had

moved out and all he had for her mom and wife seemed to be hatred.

How the hell does this happen? Luna sat down on the chair next to the

woman who had practically kidnapped her from her family but was the

only mother she knew all her life and smiled. “I just came to tell you

that Lucian and I are moving away. Some things came up and they can

only be handled where he’s taking me.”

“And where is that?” the petit dark-haired woman asked. “Well, it's a

surprise. The school will be better and I can visit anytime.” “Luna told

her. “So, I know that I kept you from your family but I'd just hoped that

you would have cared at least a little to not completely shut me out of

your life but it's fine. I know where your loyalties lie. Just please leave

me alone. I really hope that this new place brings you all that you hope

it will and that you're not disappointed.” She told Luna with a neutral

look in her eyes as she walked away. Luna was surprised. The woman

she thought was her mother was completely gone. She was no more.

She at least expected a hug even if things were dicey between them.

What in the world was going on? With this thought she did not attempt

to follow her mother upstairs shut went outside to meet her uncle and

they left together and headed home.

Lydia had hoped that Luna would follow her upstairs but she didn't. she

was so angry. If Luna had come upstairs then she would have been able

to put a tracking spell on her. “The little bitch took every trace of herself

with her and now I can't find her. I need to follow then the old fashion

way. She left me for them. I am her aunt. They just take and take and

take. My sister didn’t even tell her family about me. She didn't want me

to embarrass her. All my life she took everything from me. I just wanted

to have more power than her and look where it got me. I was weak.

After I killed her in that accident, I should have killed that child too. But

I now see that she cast a strong protection spell that prevented me. It

seems that the child has come of age and has changed so the

protection has worn off. I will kill them and cause her soul to scream

from the afterlife. They will all suffer.” Luna's mother was so full of rage

and jealousy. She wanted to kill Luna now more than ever.
